1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Blow-out on the freeway. This day is off to a great start. The boomer in me couldn't help but race to see how fast I could change a tire. Done in under 20 minutes with only the stock tool kit and bottle jack in the GX. Luckily the spare hoist broke after I got the spare off. Had to wrap it around the spare frame when I was done.

 

That's what was on my mind. Only I was the one saying "fudge" during the process.

Man, can't wait until my stick welding looks like mig. I'm trying though

 

Goddamn if it's not one thing it's another lately on my damn truck. Pax side brake line was leaking because I reused the copper washers on the new caliper and I swapped them out. Figured I would do the driver's side, now that fucker is leaking with the new copper washers and im pretty sure I stripped out the banjo bolt/brake line hole
FAWK!!

The truck drives nice after the spring swap, just doesn't stop LOL

 

Cinnamon pecan and caramel pecan

I wouldn't have bought either but free coffee so I figured I'd try it

 

Ha, that really sucks. I feel the pain

I used to tell myself I wanted to get past the "fix it enough to go wheeling" cycle but I'm seeing that it pretty much always will be that way unless I stop wheeling lol

 

I hear ya. This truck was 100% reliable for 10yrs, then after the past 2 trips it fell apart LOL!! Granted I did do zero maintenance to it 2019-early 2021

I just need it patched up enough to go wheeling the 1st week of Jan LOL

 

It just never ends on an old vehicle. I’m in a waiting room so I was updating my todo list. Didn’t even walk around the truck and I’ve got all this.

 

After the holidays I'm going to start making my build plan for my frame swap and possible front 3link. I'll probably start crying LOL!! I have my wife bought in (she's convinced my truck is going to break in half and the leafs ride too rough offroad for her bad back ), I'm just so damn cheap and hate buying stuff.

 

I make lists when I feel overwhelmed with life .

 

That's the list I posted in April +

Thermostat, transmission cooler (finish install), front diff breather, interior trim replacement, rear coils, full roof rack (possibly), steering rack bushings and whatever else I'm forgetting...

 

this but it says "I just need to make it to this wheeling trip"

 

I feel compelled to point out that I do not know this person

I bet that thing was all the rage during the early 2000s rave parties...'it's soooo SOFT'

 

sure

 

that person definitely sells ecstasy

 

hmmm not helping your case here
